HINTS WHEN MAKING ICE<br />
1. The included Water supply cup can be used<br />
to measure the amount <strong>of</strong> water to pour into<br />
Ice cube trays. Pouring too much water into<br />
the tray will result in the ice cubes connecting<br />
to each other when frozen.<br />
2. When the ice cubes are made, turn the lever<br />
clockwise to empty the ice into Ice cube box.<br />
NOTE:<br />
To prevent damage to the Ice cube box, do not<br />
make ice in the Ice cube box or pour oil into it.<br />

Plasmacluster<br />
Notes about PLASMACLUSTER operation<br />
The ionizer inside your refrigerator releases clusters <strong>of</strong> ions, which are collective masses<br />
<strong>of</strong> positive and negative ions, into the freezer and refrigerator compartment.<br />
These ion clusters reduce airborne mold fungus.<br />

button<br />
• There may be a slight odors in the refrigerator. This is the smell <strong>of</strong> ozone generated by<br />
the ionizer. The amount <strong>of</strong> ozone is minimal, and quickly decomposes in the refrigerator.<br />
DEODORIZING UNIT<br />
A built-in unit which requires no manual operation because it automatically starts operating when the<br />
refrigerator is powered on.<br />
DEFROSTING<br />
Defrosting is fully automatic due to a unique energy saving system. Whereby the defrost cycle start time<br />
is proportional to the running time <strong>of</strong> your refrigerator compressor, i. e., the less time the refrigerator<br />
compressor operates (during the winter season or you’re away on holidays), the longer the time between<br />
each defrost cycle.<br />

WHAT TO DO BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE<br />
Before you call for service, check the following point .<br />
WHEN YOUR REFRIGERATOR DOES NOT WORK<br />
• Check that the power is switched on and that the plug is correctly connected.<br />
• Check with another appliance or lamp to see if the outlet has electric current. The fuse be blown or a<br />
circuit breaker tripped.<br />
WHEN THERE IS A NOISE DURING OPERATION<br />
• Cabinet not level.<br />
• Weak or uneven floor.<br />
• The back <strong>of</strong> the cabinet touching the wall.<br />
IT IS NORMAL for the refrigerator to produce the following sounds.<br />
• Loud noise produced by the compressor when operation starts --- Sound becomes quieter after a<br />
while.<br />
• Loud noise produced once a day by the compressor --- Operating sound produced immediately after<br />
automatic defrost operation.<br />
• Sound <strong>of</strong> flowing fluid (gurgling sound, fizzing sound) --- Sound <strong>of</strong> refrigerant flowing in pipes (sound<br />
may become louder from time to time).<br />
• Cracking or crunching sound --- Sound produced by expansion and contraction <strong>of</strong> inner walls and<br />
internal parts during cooling.<br />
• Squeaking sound --- Sound produced by expansion and contraction <strong>of</strong> internal parts.<br />
IT IS NORMAL that the outside <strong>of</strong> a cabinet may be hot when touched. The hot pipe is in the cabinet in<br />
order to prevent dew generation.<br />

STORING FOOD<br />
Refrigeration reduces the rate <strong>of</strong> food spoilage. To maximize the shelf life <strong>of</strong> perishable food products,<br />
ensure that the food is <strong>of</strong> the freshest possible quality. The following is a general guide to help promote<br />
longer food storage.<br />
Fruit / Vegetables<br />
To minimize moisture loss, fruit and vegetables<br />
should be loosely enclosed in a plastic material e.g.<br />
wrap, bags ( do not seal ) and place in Vegetable<br />
crisper. Those fruits and vegetables with thick skins<br />
e.g. oranges do not require wrapping.<br />
Dairy Products & Eggs<br />
• Most dairy products have a use by date on the<br />
outer packaging which informs the recommended<br />
temperature and shelf life <strong>of</strong> the product.<br />
• Eggs should be stored in the Egg holder.<br />
MILK<br />
MILK<br />
Meats / Fish / Poultry<br />
• Place on a plate or dish and cover with paper or<br />
plastic wrap.<br />
• For larger cuts <strong>of</strong> meat, fish, or poultry, place to<br />
the rear <strong>of</strong> the shelves.<br />
• Ensure all cooked food is wrapped securely or<br />
placed in an airtight container.<br />
FOR BEST FREEZING<br />
NOTE:<br />
• Evenly place the food on the shelves to allow<br />
the cooling air to circulate efficiently.<br />
• Hot foods should be cooled before storing.<br />
Storing hot foods increases the temperature<br />
in the unit and increases the risk <strong>of</strong> food spoilage.<br />
• Do not block the outlet and inlet <strong>of</strong> the cool<br />
air circulating circuit with foods or containers;<br />
otherwise the foods will not be evenly<br />
cooled throughout the refrigerator.<br />
Do not place food directly<br />
in front <strong>of</strong> cold air outlet.<br />
This may lead to the food<br />
freezing.<br />
• Quality <strong>of</strong> foods should be fresh.<br />
• Freeze small quantities <strong>of</strong> food at a time to freeze them quickly.<br />
• Food should be properly stored or covered and the air should be removed to seal tightly.<br />
• Evenly place the food in the freezer.<br />
• Label bags or containers to keep an inventory <strong>of</strong> freezing food.<br />
